If one caseworker is juggling 200 clients, that’s not just a staffing problem. That’s a policy decision. Underfunded systems don’t collapse by accident. They’re designed to fail the people who need them most. Speak up. Demand better.

USDA is pulling the plug on two key food programs—LFPA and LFS—that sent over $1B to farmers and fed families through schools and food banks. In a time of rising hunger, this isn’t belt-tightening—it’s gut-punching. #FoodInsecurity #USDACuts #FarmToTableToTrash #HungerCrisis #PolicyFailure

That really is a good question. Why are we paying $8 and more for eggs on empty shelves while Mexico has plenty??? And will Happy Eggs et al. start clamoring for a tariff on eggs? Or a border wall to prevent smuggling?

Current status: we're smuggling eggs in from Mexico now.
So let's talk about WHY Mexico's egg industry has been stable- while US egg prices are through the roof!
1. Mexico puts people in jail for price-fixing.
2. Mexico lets farmers vaccinate their chickens against bird flu.

A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

“Rise up,” they urged—while missiles fell. People didn’t revolt; they hid from death. This wasn’t a miscalculation—it was willful blindness. Leadership ignored reality, and now the cost is measured in blood, not rhetoric. #PolicyFailure #HumanCost

7/10 The scale of broken promises is breathtaking. The government initially claimed the benefit would lift "hundreds of thousands" of disabled Canadians out of poverty.
Reality? Only 25,000 people and 15,000 family members by 2028. A 90%+ reduction in scope.
